Hello,
I would like to ask for help. I have a field in the xml file, which contains a string, that is bound to a text box on the form.
What would be the syntax to replace a special character in the string with the carriage return?
Thank you.

TimeSheet to round to nearest quarter hour
I have this time sheet that has four "In" and four "Out" columns,and calculates hours worked in a two week pay period. There is a column on the right that calculates the hours worked for the day (see script below). I need it to round to the nearest quarter hour i.e.,
If an employee arrives or leaves between:
":00" to ":07" minutes after the hour, calculate from the top of the hour
":08" to ":22" minutes after the hour, calculate from quarter after the hour
":23" to ":37" minutes after the hour, calculate from the half hour
":38" to ":52" minutes after the hour, calculate from three quarters past the hour
":53" to ":60" minutes after the hour, calculate from the top of the hour
Examples:
An employee records that they arrived at 8:07 a.m. Calculate from 8:00
An employee records that they arrived at 8:08 a.m. Calculate from 8:15
An employee records that they arrived at 8:22 a.m. Calculate from 8:30
An employee records that they arrived at 8:37 a.m. Calculate from 8:45
An employee records that they arrived at 8:53 a.m. Calculate from 9:00
Script in "Hours Worked" column
// compute block 0
var StartInterval = 0
if(HasValue(OUTA1[0]) and HasValue(INA1[0])) then
StartInterval = Time2Num(OUTA1[0].formattedValue, "HH:MM") - Time2Num(INA1[0].formattedValue, "HH:MM")
endif
// compute block 1
var LunchInterval = 0
if(HasValue(OUTA1[1]) and HasValue(INA1[1])) then
LunchInterval = Time2Num(OUTA1[1].formattedValue, "HH:MM") - Time2Num(INA1[1].formattedValue, "HH:MM")
endif
// compute block 2
var EndInterval = 0
if(HasValue(OUTA1[2]) and HasValue(INA1[2])) then
EndInterval = Time2Num(OUTA1[2].formattedValue, "HH:MM") - Time2Num(INA1[2].formattedValue, "HH:MM")
endif
// compute total time in hours from the millisecond value
Round(Sum(StartInterval, LunchInterval, EndInterval) / 3600000,2)
I know in excel I can use =(ROUND(B2*96, 0)/96)-(ROUND(A2*96, 0)/96) to get the results I want. So I tried entering in something similar into the FormCalc script but with no luck. If you could tell me what I need to do to get this to work I'd be very appreciative. Thank you, Derrick

Autopopulate text field based on drop down menu.
Ok. I know alot of people have asked questions about this but none of them seem to match what I need to do.
I am trying to make an equipment request order form that will be automatically filled out based upon what is selected from a drop down menu. For example if someone selects "ACLS" text box 1 would automatically generate with "Adult CPR Maniken" and text box 2 would generate "Child CPR Maniken". If someone was to select "PALS" text box 1 would automatically generate "Infant CPR Maniken"....and so forth. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am just a Paramedic with some computer skills, not an expert by any means!
Thanks!

Arabic Text inside Static PDF LiveCycle Form is stored in weird order.
Please check this thread:
After doing lot of testing and investigation, I found out the following on SQL Server 2000 under Windows Server 2003 using Indexing Service:
1. Arabic Text in Static PDF Files (created using Adobe LiveCycle Desinger Static PDF with XDP for data binding) is stored using the unicode of the connected char shapes in reverse order !!!!!!
2. Arabic Text in MS Office Files is stored using the unicode of the isolated char shapes in normal order. This is the correct way as per my expectation.
I verified this when searching for the "Sick Leave" Form Requests. I found, by chance, the Arabic Text of "Sick" inside the "Characterization" result field and while it looks normal in Query Analyzer Window, when I verified the unicode value of each letter, I figured out what is going wrong. I used the following code in Query Analyzer to verify:
print unicode(substring(N'ﺔﻴﺿﺮﻣ', 5,1))
print unicode(substring(N'مرضية', 1, 1))
print nchar(65251)
print nchar(1605)
--- result is --->
65251
1605
ﻣ
م
The following queries returns entirely different results:
select *
from openquery(ISRV, 'Select Filename,PATH,rank,url,characterization from SCOPE() where contains(contents, ''"ﺔﻴﺿﺮﻣ"'')')
order by FileName
select *
from openquery(ISRV, 'Select Filename,PATH,rank,url,characterization from SCOPE() where contains(contents, ''"مرضية"'')')
order by FileName
Now next question is why the Arabic Text inside the Static PDF File is stored in this wiered format ????!!!!
I have stored some Arabic Text in a regular TXT File, but until now, it is not picked up by the Indexing Service scanning engine (since one week). Once it is scanned, I will confirm the result.
I think I need to post this question to Adobe Support.
Any one can help with this?

dropdown list scroll bar
I'm new to livecycle and have created a dropdown list on a form. 9 items have been added to the drop down list.
However when I open the dropdown list only a few items are shown and no scroll bar is shown.
Is there a setting or property I need to change to view the scroll bar and the additional items.
Thanks in advance.

Hiding a master page based on a condition
Hi All,
I have created a form which has data on odd pages and some terms and condition on the back pages(even) pages. I am using Adobe Livecycle Designer ES version 8.1.2
For this I created 4 Master pages.
FirstPage - Pagination -> Odd/Even - > Odd (front) pages
Placement -> First Page (in Page set)
Front Page - Pagination -> Odd/Even - > Odd (front) pages
Placement -> Rest of pages
BackPage - Pagination -> Odd/Even - > Even (Back) pages
Placement -> Rest of pages
Dummy - Pagination -> Odd/Even - > Blank page
I dragged the content area of back page on the dummy page.
This set up works fine for printing.
I have additional requirement of archiving, emailing and faxing. While sending a email or fax or archiving, the data should be continuous, the back master page should be removed otherwise they show in alternate pages as blank pages even if i set the presence property to visible(print only) .
Are there any settings which can be done to remove the master pages that are not needed based on a codition.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards

Is there a possibility, that subforms flow up again to avoid big wide gaps in a document?
Pages are set to flow Direction Top to bottom and page breaks are allowed within the page
The subforms on the page are set content: positioned, auto fit in height.
So is there a way to avoid unwanted creation of the gaps?

Android Mobile Browser (Chrome/FF) Fast Web View
Although I have checked fast web view in an ES4 Designer (dynamic PDF) form, when I upload to my server and view in FF or Chrome using an Android device, it does not display online (see below: works OK when using a Windows desktop).
It asks to download the PDF form and tries to open it in latest Acrobat Reader DC, but then shows an error when trying to open and view: "Please wait...If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents..."
I also used Google Drive to download a copy of the same PDF form onto the same Android device (Nexus 10 tablet-OS: Lollipop 5). Same result.
As mentioned this same form works perfectly on Win 10 Desktop when previewed in ES4 Designer or Acrobat Pro DC, or uploaded and viewed online.
Not sure what I am doing wrong? Any help appreciated.

Changing border colour of required item
Adobe Livecycle Designer ES v8.2.1
Dynamic PDF
I've spent the last hour searching through broken links and tangential tutorials. I have a required exclusion group (radio buttons) and the user must choose one of the values in order for the form to be valid. The problem is, I have hundreds of checkboxes and they all have a gigantic red border stuck around them. There is no highlighting when one is not checked and the form is submitted, they are simply all bright red.
Here's what I have tried:
Exclusion group on "initialize"
this.border.presence = "invisible";
this.border.edge.presence = "invisible";
this.border.fill.presence = "invisible";
this.borderColor.fillColor = "invisible";
this.borderColor.presence = "invisible";
this.fillColor.presence = "invisible";
Exclusion group on "form::ready"
this.border.presence = "invisible";
this.border.edge.presence = "invisible";
this.border.fill.presence = "invisible";
this.borderColor.fillColor = "invisible";
this.borderColor.presence = "invisible";
this.fillColor.presence = "invisible";
Exclusion group on "layout::ready"
this.border.presence = "invisible";
this.border.edge.presence = "invisible";
this.border.fill.presence = "invisible";
this.borderColor.fillColor = "invisible";
this.borderColor.presence = "invisible";
this.fillColor.presence = "invisible";
None of these are working. Is there honestly no way to control the border colour / visibility of a required item? I can make the whole item disappear easy enough but that doesn't solve anything. Setting the default value is not an option as the client wants to ensure all fields have been thoroughly reviewed by the "clickee"
Thanks for your time.

Conditional Required Fields
Is it possible to have conditional required fields. As in if a certain box is selected, certain fields will become required. Take a look at this example if this needs clarification. In this example, the left 3 text boxes are required. If I check the middle checkbox, can I make it so the 3 text fields in the middle now become required as well. Furthermore, if I check off the 3rd check box (rightmost one), can I make all of the text boxes as required fields. Thanks!

Adobe Acrobat DC erased my Adobe LiveCycles
Hey All,
I have a pretty in depth form that I have been updating in Adobe LiveCycle for several years now with populated large dropdown options and so on, but with the Cloud I have to also download the LiveCycle program separately. I have no issues with that, but with the latest upgrade to Adobe Acrobat DC from the cloud deleted my LiveCycle. Does anyone else have this issue? Any suggestions? Is LiveCycle just that out of date? To me it had so much more control over forms than anything I have tried in Acrobat and I really need that kind of control. I do not see where in Acrobat to populate my dropdown menus and in the last Acrobat XI it would automatically move me back into LiveCycle when I did try to update my forms so I was ok with that.
Please any advice at all is appreciated! I have searched and searched and I see what looks to be a LiveCycle ES4 for sale on Adobe.com, but is this not part of the cloud? Are they still upgrading LiveCycle? Do I bother trying?
Thank you!

How to set display patterns on a decimal field to handle user text entered in error.
Hi
I'm creating a PDF in LiveCycle, which has a decimal field with the display pattern 'num{zzz,zzz,zz9.99}'. The idea is for users to enter a numerical value with a maximum of two decimal points (i.e. 1,234.01)
Now I'm testing this form out to see whether it'll handle any incorrect user entries - especially the scenario where a user enters some string (letters) in this field by error. When I'm testing this scenario on Acrobat Pro, any text entries will be cleared out as soon the user tabs out of the field (which is exactly what I want it to do as it only should accept numerical values).
However when testing this out in Adobe Reader (with Reader Extendability switched on), any text entries are replaced with a "0.00" when the user tabs out of the field. Unfortunately this is not what I want . Replacing an incorrect entry with a 0.00 is actually a misrepresentation, because 0.00 is a valid entry that the users should be allowed to enter if they want to (hope that last sentence made sense ).
Does anyone have any ideas how this can be sorted? I'm thinking this is something to do with the "Allow Empty" or the "Allow Zero" settings on the display pattern window. But i haven't got a clue on where to start because I've never used those settings before. Any help anyone can provide me will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
